Tucker Carlson challenged Sidney Powell, one of President Trump’s lawyers, for failing to provide concrete evidence so far to her claims that election software companies stole millions of votes from Trump.
In his opening monologue on last night’s program, the pro-Trump host recounted how communication between his staff and Powell broke down as she reportedly became frustrated by his requests for any information that would validate her claims.
WATCH:
Tucker Carlson calls out Sidney Powell, saying he asked her for evidence to support her election fraud claims, but “she never sent us any evidence despite a lot of requests, polite requests, not a page.”

The Daily Caller reports:
Powell said during a press conference Thursday that “communist money” sent through “Venezuela, Cuba and possibly China” was used to interfere in the 2020 presidential election. She said that Dominion Voting Systems and its software, which according to the Wall Street Journal serve about 40% of American voters, were created at the direction of former Venezuelan President Hugo Chavez “to make sure he never lost another election” after he lost an election in his country.
Specifically, Powell said the voting software used by Dominion has the ability to flip votes from Trump to Biden. Powell said an algorithm was probably run “all over the country to take a certain percentage of votes from President Trump and flip them to President Biden.”
Powell said the Trump campaign’s legal efforts would prove that Trump “won by a landslide.”
Carlson said Powell’s claims, if true, would “amount to the greatest single crime in American history.”
disappointed in Carlson….for basically piling on…she is going to court with the evidence…does he think he is the court…maybe he is caught up reading his own press clippings
Carlson will be lucky if he can work for CNN after this.
I too like Tucker however did he not hear Jenna Ellis ? This was simply an ” Overview ” to lay out the preliminary
details in a paraphrasing manner . They’re not going to have their case tried before the mindless media . No case ever shows their
TRUMP card in advance or leak significant details which , along with other things , eliminates a plethora of potential jurors .
Took the word right out of my fingers
Tucker: Suddenly Stupid.
I watched Sidney Powell speak at the press conference. They were all clear that this would be their opening arguments, and that they would not be providing specific evidence to the press, but rather to the courts first. Why should media get to see specific evidence before the courts? It would only give them time to find out where the Americans who signed affidavits of fraud live and publish their phone numbers.
Why come out with evidence now. Wait until it has actual value in the courts – if it ever gets there. Giving it out now would only allow the cheaters to get their false narrative out to confuse the people just as they did with the Hunter Biden issue.
I agree with you. It is obvious why she couldn’t reveal specifics. Now, I love Tucker. I know he and his family have been through alot, but my guess is, due to his reaction, is someone on his staff is influencing him. The Left are infiltrators. No doubt he has one or a few of them on his staff (unaware) – the infiltrators ARE influence peddlers. This is what the Left pay them to do. Infiltrate through a type of affinity fraud. Subvert. So, my guess is he got information from “his” people of how Powell was being uncooperative with them… yada, yada, yada, the usual subversive garbage, to now cause Tucker to question Powell. (He really needs to be questioning his staff who put him up to this.)
Sidney is ten steps ahead of the media and Rudy
This mail fraud and computer fraud is the biggest crime the democrats have done against President Trump and the American people. SHAME ON THE DEMOCRATS!!!!!
Some will pay with their lives for it! Hopefully (prayerfully) we can then help Venezuelans get their country back, and every other country this machine has been used to steal elections from free people for globalist psychopath dictators! All their election stealing has been preparation for the globalist psychopath’s NWO, which Trump has stopped their momentum for the time being. This is due to God’s timeline. It is time for the latter rain and then the “rapture” of God’s people, and THEN the time of the NWO’S Antichrist. This all happens quickly, so get ready for a doozy of a time that is coming to planet earth. Receive Jesus Christ of Nazareth as your Lord and Savior and in doing so, receive eternal life! #MAGA
Amen. Glory be to God
I’m not a lawyer but I know that the legal train will run on time. The facts will be presented in court. They aren’t going to reveal the evidence until the time is right. I really believe that they have the proof, but the deep state is also in many of our so called courts. Trump might win and he might not. Either way, I firmly believe that he is getting screwed. Thousands of ballots for Biden with no down ballots marked? I don’t think so. So Biden would have the mark of cheating on him through out his short time in office. Same with Kamala when she took over. That’s why I would never comply with anything that they passed into law by legislation or executive order And over the years the high courts have struck down unconstitutional laws from congress as well as executive orders. Let’s keep the faith.
So correct!
Tucker should not be rude. Sidney was a guest and Tucker should let her talk. I like Tucker but am disappointed in him.
Maybe she didn’t feel the necessity to tell you ANYTHING Mr Carlson Tucker..go F yourself!!! Traitor
Why can’t we all wait until it’s all done before even asking for proof. If she shows Fox news she than has to show all the other networks. I’m now turning off Tucker.
Might have been good if Tucker had pointed out that Powell likely can’t reveal her ‘evidence’ before going to court, if it does exist. Also, if evidence was made public, left could scurry to possibly such evidence.
that is “possibly destroy such evidence.”
NOW TUCKER GOES LEFT? NO MORE FOX FOR US! IF YOU DON’T KNOW A “BAG JOB” WHEN YOU SEE ONE TUCKER YOU NEED A PROPER PAIR OF GLASSES! INSTEAD OF KNIT PICKING SYDNEY POWELL, WHY DON’T YOU FIND OUT WHAT MORONS VOTED FOR THE “SQUAD” . HOMELY, UGLY BALDIE AND BEDPAN HEAD!
Tucker Carlson now thinks he is the king of Bullshit news Host’s . he is just like he was when he got fired for his opinions Not the facts . FOX NEWS IS LIKE CNN <MSNBC< CBS< AND NFL NBA THEY ARE NOT THE BE ALL ???THEY THINK THEY ARE !!
Why would any Good Attorney Lay out the Facts of there case to DUMB ASS TUCKEY
They are still in discovery mode. They will have the facts ready when they go to court. Tucker has been watching too much Perry Mason. This case isn’t going to be tried before the media. Them idiots think that they can call the shots just like they think they can call an election.
The Bull Crap Media . Is hurting Americans with all there (FAKE- NEWS) while sitting there reading off of a teleprompter what others have written . But they have million Dollars Contract’s. . That’s the First thing that makes no sense??? There just BAD actors . Getting filthy rich . Please every Body go to Next news or news Max !!!
NewsMax for me. You don’t release evidence in public before presented in court. It tends to pi$$ of judges and could be a cause for disqualifiication of the evidence. It also pollutes possible future jury pool.
Tucker has now joined the fox anti Trump team.
Well, Mr. Tucker, we can just cut our ties to you we thought you were a fair minded person, BUT we were wrong!!! Anybody can see (if they just open their eyes to the truth) just what is going on here. We have heard enough to know that there is a lot of voter fraud going on!!! Sydney Powell was very candid if her findings!!! It would be very easy for you to check out the Venezuela issue regarding the counting of the votes!!! Have you looked into that??? And those affidavits are HUGE. These people are putting their lives on the line!!! And, they should not have to publicly reveal their names!!! Remember the Democrats and the whistle blower story?? They set that story up pretty nicely (we still don’t know who Adam Schiff’s whistle blower was, but we do know that Adam Schiff was trying to use him (if there was a him!!! I am thinking Adam Schiff made him up!!!). So you can’t pull out the “where are the whistle blowers act”. Just ask Adam Schiff about that!!! Do you even care about the integrity of our election?? If you do, then prove it. Check out this bombshell information that President Trump’s legal team have put out there. If this has happened, and I strongly suspect that it did; THEN check it out; get the facts and see where it goes.
Evidence belongs in the courts not Tucker Carlson. Tucker Carlson Super Star???? NOT ANYMORE!
Since Fox News has recently shown their true colors, can Tucker really expect Sidney to not protect the investigation and to give up information that may likely be leaked? We see now that people who are brave enough to come forward have been subjected to threats and abuse. At this point, no one really knows where his loyalty lies or what Fox News may do with the information. He is free to do his own investigation and seek the truth before implying that she has no proof to proceed with.
Goodbye Tucker. Never thought you would ‘Kaepernick’ yourself. Thought you were smarter than that. And if you are harboring any political ambitions, you can forget those now too. So unnecessary.
I USED to like Tucker. No more! When is Laura Ingraham going to be turning left as well?
The pundits on TV should just report the facts–News not Opinions! All of them, even Carlson, I’m Afraid, think they are more than they are.
When the “reporters” start deciding when an election has been won, or whether an upcoming court case is valid, we won’t need any ballot counters, judges, or juries. God help us if that type of “democracy” comes to pass!
Tucker, I really like you & love your show but I believe you are pressing her too hard. There are just some things the government cannot share with anyone until they have the complete case together. President Trump and his team of attorneys are working hard to collect undisputed information to present their case before lawsuits, especially now that it looks like they will presenting their case before the Supreme Court. I bet if you be patient his attorneys will give you the scoop.
Why didn’t Tucker go find out whether the evidence was true for himself? Why ask Sidney Powell to expose their witnesses whose identifies could possibly be leaked by people on Tucker’s staff? Come on, man!!!
I watched Carlson on this issue!! unless it were a secondary statements coming from him, I am going to suggest EVEN platforms as this are benefiting from mild manipulations of he said she said just to get the hits!!
Wanna see how quick some may UNSUB?? I’M NOT PLAYING WITH ANY OF THIS SHITE!
Sidney Powell cannot reveal evidence ahead of presenting it to the court.
Does Tucker Carlson know anything about legal procedure? What the hell has happened to him? You do not give the other side such material from your case so they can develop their lies and arguments to counter your case (or intimidate witnesses or make evidence disappear). Shameful of him to do.
Carlson is not stupid, or at least I didn’t think he was, until he expected Ms Powell to reveal her evidence to him before it is presented in a court of law. Lawyers don’t reveal evidence to members of the general public, regardless of their celebrity. It would not be ethical and could negatively affect the presentation of that evidence before a judge. The most Guliani, Powell and Ellis can do is announce to the public that the evidence exists. Really, Tucker, you should be aware of that and apologize to Ms Powell for being too much like those across the political aisle. I certainly hope you’re not inching toward a reversal in your political stance. The last thing we need is another traitor.
I have had a deep respect for Tucker for a long time. In this case however I have to say that what is being asked for belongs in a court of law and NOT in the news media. I would have thought that Tucker would understand that. The News media with mainly Tucker being the exception, has been a relentless enemy of president Trump. As a whole they have no right to the details of evidence that is distended for the legal system, and would use such information in a damaging way. The media has proven bias in this country and if Tucker were given this evidence it would be broadcast. While I might trust him to do so in a fair way, I do not trust others and firmly believe this is strictly a court issue up through the time they make decisions based on it.
. . . Keep going Tucker . . .soon you’ll be applying to be a Dixie Chick or Jane Fonda’s fan club president !
I’m am so disappointed at Fox News that I now refuse to watch them. All my viewing is on YouTube watching NewsMax, NTD, OAN and other news. This was my last straw with Tucker. Then you got Dana, Kirsten, Bret, and especially Chris Wallace that has gone to the dark side. Only a few left you can trust beginning with Maria, Lou, Hannity, Judge Jeninne, Greg Gutfield, Jesse Waters and Laura. How long will they be kept at Fox? Fox is already working Judge Jeninne for an exit.
Carlson never cared for you nor your style of journalism??? I do want to point out one fact of legal practice to you – since you seem to think you are as important as a judge – lawyers present evidence in court, not before court.
Tucker is outgrowing his panties.
The great thinker (Carlson) Stopped thinking! On the other hand,Powell knows that TIMING is everything. She has never claimed to have solid evidence and failed to produce it! The Carlson’s and Perino’s should stand-down and leave the lawyering to Powell, that is, if FOX permits you to do so!
Tucker needed to hear Mark Levin last night on why Sidney Powell should give any of the proof until they get to court. Tucker needs to apologize to Sidney and to the ones who watch him. Newsmax is getting more people turning to them because of Tucker and several of the others on Fox.
Tucker, YOU DO NOT HAVE ANY BUSINESS challenging our President’s lawyer. If you can’t work for our President and his wonderful agenda, and for the good of America, then you are working against all of this. Don’t let your feeling of importance get in the way of doing what is right!!! HAVE YOU checked into these allegations proposed by President Trump’s lawyers? No? Didn’t think so!! If so, you would have come to understand what a huge, massive corrupt and criminal this voter fraud election really is!!! Where are you investigators? Why don’t you instruct them to check this out for you. Because I am sure you are just way too busy to do it yourself!!! Either way, lay off of our President and his attorneys!!! THANK YOU!!!
Very disappointed in Tucker, he should understand that a lawyer uses strategies that they use in court. It is sad to see someone that wants all the information right now, as he has said before let the system work, but he is not doing that. It should be understood that if the lawyers go to court and have not to prove it is their representation, it is not up to public opinion to try this case.
I had decided to fast from FOX, restricting myself to Tucker and the 5. It’s over! Fox has committed suicide!
She is smart NOT to share info with ANYONE at FOX…..I think you know why……..
Did he get threatened, or did the Soros pay off, get that much of an increase?
Of course She is not going to tip her hand to a news media who has just shown how far Left they have become. Does a poker player show off his high card?
Tucker became a backstabber like the RINOS
Tucker, you’re not being particularly helpful given the circumstances!
NEVER INFORM THE ENEMY OF YOUR STRATEGY!
Tucker should be very aware of this! He will have to wait for the court proceedings IF he will be allowed to enter the room!
I stopped watching Tucker because of his hysterical, snide laugh. But am impressed he is holding Powell’s feet to fire. Legitimate question! Trump holding process hostage. Continue being serious, Tucker
Is Powell’s claim results will be “Biblical” keeping silent?? I am offended by dragging Bible into her evidence. Render to Caesar what is Caesars”
I like Tucker but he is entering a world where he has never been and doesn’t belong. Sidney is a military federal lawyer and unlike Rudy she can prosecute for treason. VERY POWERFUL. She is best forging ahead on her own as she can go places Rudy cannot!
